introspect url connection error with error different from 401

Currently APIGW doesn't support to return specific response due to fail to connect to the introspect url. From APIGW's point of view, fail to connect to the introspect url still belong to UnauthorizedError. I will prefer that in this case we have a 500 internel server error from datapower gateway instead of 401. Becouse in this case we don't know if there is o less a invalid bearer token.


best regards

    Hi – Thank you for raising this request. We agree that this could be a valid enhancement for our third-party OAuth integration support.

    However, as an alternative solution we also support the ability to configure PreFlow Policies (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/10.0.5.x_lts?topic=policies-customizing-preflow) prior the assembly. This might help you to catch and rewrite the errors which occur before reaching the API policy flow (eg. in the case of 401 or 404). Additonally, you can also use global policies that can run just before, or just after an API assemblies is called or when an error is thrown (https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/api-connect/10.0.5.x_lts?topic=applications-working-global-policies) The global policies are deployed to Gateway Services and associated with given Catalogs (optional Space). So even though they are called Global it is not an all or nothing across the environment.
